Sales-ready proof claims

Founder review draft of current, maturity-aware proof claims built around speed, human control, whole-lifecycle delivery, and insight travel.

This is a founder-review draft for demos, decks, follow-up material, and live private-beta conversations. It uses the current launch narrative: answer faster, stay in control, and make insight travel further.

How to use this sheet

  • Choose three default claims for founder-led conversations.
  • Pair every claim with a workflow, screen, approved customer example, or measured operating signal.
  • Label the supporting product as live, beta, selected-customer-only, or directional.
  • Treat mechanism proof as mechanism proof; do not turn it into an unmeasured customer outcome.

Recommended core claims

Answer faster without taking the researcher out of the loop

  • Say: `<un>peel helps insight teams move from a research question to a usable answer faster, while keeping the researcher in control of the decisions that matter.`
  • Proof hook: live survey and research workflows, structured review, and the human-in-the-loop Trust Centre.
  • Maturity note: show only the workflows that are live for the buyer's agreed beta scope.

Run the research, not just store the outputs

  • Say: `Unlike a repository that only receives finished work, <un>peel connects design, fieldwork, quality review, analysis, and evidence reuse across the research lifecycle.`
  • Proof hook: the design-collect-connect-share workflow, live core research products, and the connected evidence model.
  • Maturity note: this is the platform differentiation; it is not a claim that every planned product is already generally available.

Keep quality visible while the work is still live

  • Say: `Teams can see and review quality signals while fieldwork is running instead of waiting for a hidden cleanup step at the end.`
  • Proof hook: the live Trust Centre, its Real / Unique / Engaged review structure, human review, and the approved `38+ quality metrics` claim.
  • Maturity note: do not claim Qualtrics-class post-field response-quality or enterprise maturity.

Make insight travel beyond the final debrief

  • Say: `Research stays connected to its evidence so people can find, reuse, and build on what the organisation has already learned.`
  • Proof hook: Insight Navigator in controlled beta and the connected evidence layer.
  • Maturity note: describe Insight Navigator as controlled beta and Segment Lens as in build; do not imply broad, measured cross-study ROI yet.

Keep AI work traceable and reviewable

  • Say: `AI does useful work inside a governed research workflow, with the source material and human decisions kept visible.`
  • Proof hook: evidence-linked retrieval, project history, and reviewable decisions.
  • Maturity note: show the exact traceability that exists in the demonstrated workflow; do not generalise beyond it.

Product claims that need maturity labels

  • Surveys, Discussion Groups, Guided Interviews, and Trust Centre: sell the live core that can actually be demonstrated and delivered.
  • Discussion Groups V2: in test; do not present the V2 improvement set as fully released.
  • Insight Navigator: controlled beta.
  • Segment Lens: in build, with the current August-September target.
  • Research Guard and Research Architect: October beta targets; preview only where explicitly agreed.

Guardrails for live use

  • Do not lead with `confidence` as the category differentiator. Use confidence, defensibility, audit trail, or governance only when they answer the buyer's question.
  • Do not offer the `full designed product set` as though it is all live.
  • Do not present Research Guard or Research Architect as generally available.
  • Do not claim enterprise security, procurement, legal, connector, or low-touch rollout maturity beyond the current pack.
  • Do not use customer names, logos, quotes, or outcomes until the proof-permission register records approval.
  • Use `38+ quality metrics` where helpful. Do not use competing `20,000+` or `30,000+ lines` claims until the source and approved wording are reconciled.

Founder approval required

  • Select the three claims that become the default founder talk track.
  • Approve the exact screen, mechanism, or evidence attached to each claim.
  • Approve which claims can be public and which stay inside private-beta conversations.
  • Confirm which named customers, logos, quotes, and results may be used.
